Over at the Whisher blog, we have some individual from Germany that is posting anonymous comments basically bashing us and saying some other WiFi startup is ever so much better. His last comment (we obviously will not approve senseless crap like this) now threatens to post screenshots of our censorship all over the internet, whatever that means. These are the comments we have received so far, feel free to judge for yourself if not approving them equals censorship, or that they are the work of a deluded troll just wanting to provoke.

no way for censorship! be aware, that screendumps of ALL your censorship can be find soon on the net, everywhere. NO WAY!
All these have been posted from IP addresses originating in Germany, so I think I have a pretty good idea of who is behind this, however, if I am right, he’s no longer promoting his usual startup, but another. In any case, please, give up.
As for the Vista issues in Whisher, it is true that we have had a very long and tedius integration process, but this is due to Vista having broken all previous behavior with something called Native WiFi, which is an extra layer in the onion (and a very thick one!), to make matters worse, hardly documented in the beginnings. The reason other WiFi tools work in Vista (the one this guy refers to doesn’t work that well at all as he claims) is that they don’t dig as deep as we do into the driver, basically using the garden-variety APIs for connecting and disconnecting from networks.
